Flash Memory Feet
Descriptions
The inventive step converts any of the feet under any system unit into useful electronic gadget(s). A system unit is any electronic and electrical device and equipment such as system unit, printers, computer towers, Apple iPad, eBook reader, scanners, graphic tablet
One example is to convert one of the feet under a system unit into flash memory drive.
The purpose of incorporates the useful electronic gadget(s) into peripheral device(s) of different expanded functions and capabilities is to give support to the system unit that they are attached underneath to
The feet under the system unit can be converted into useful electronic gadget(s) of peripheral devices of different expanded function and capabilities are known also known as Electronic Feet Device(s).
Any one or all of the feet under the system unit can be converted to Electronic Feet
Device(s) for use as support under the system unit. The Electronic Feet Device(s) under one system unit can be converted to peripheral devices of different expanded functions to complement each other and capabilities
The complementing expanded functions and capabilities give a full and complete set of expanded peripheral functions to the system unit they are attached to. The full and complete set of expanded complementing peripheral functions and capabilities can be a set of two or more inter-complementing Electronic Feet Device(s)
The Electronic Feet Device(s) is an integrated part of the system unit that go together with the system unit as one single piece equipment and stays underneath the system unit as a permanent fixture. The Electronic Feet Device(s) can be also attached to the system unit as a semi-permanent fixture
The Electronic Feet Device(s) is an integral part of the system unit because it is a key contributing component with the vital value to protect the underneath of the system unit and to provide the support structure to the system unit for the system unit to function usefully as a fully and wholly functional stand alone and complete system unit
One of the Electronic Feet Device(s) function is to operate as a peripheral device with the expanded function and capability to support the system unit. Another of the
Electronic Feet Device(s) function is to operate as a vital foot support structure between the system unit and the base platform of which the system unit is to rest on
The Electronic Feet Device(s) protects the underneath of the system unit by acting as a protection piece between the system unit and the platform it is resting on for support.
The system unit becomes a host controller to the Electronic Feet Device(s) when they are interconnected by a data interface such as a Universal Serial Bus (USB) or wireless data interface such as a Wireless Personal Networks (WPANS)
One useful application is to convert the any of the feet under the system unit into an
Electronic Feet Device(s) with the expanded peripheral function and capability of a
Flash Memory Drive. The Electronic Feet Device(s) with the expanded peripheral function and capability of a Flash Memory is also known as Universal Serial Bus (USB)
Flash Memory Feet.
An example of a useful application is for the Flash Memory Feet to function as a
Security token with build in software program in sequence of instructions, procedures, or algorithms, or a collection of computer programs written to perform a specific task for electrical electronic.
The purpose of incorporates the useful electronic gadget(s) into peripheral device(s) of different expanded functions and capabilities is to give support to the System Unit that they are attached underneath to. Currently there is no such a product that is converts a system feet into a flash memory.
The Flash Memory Feet is a generic name to mean any one foot under the system unit that is converted to become a peripheral with the Flash Memory function and capability.
A preferred but not the only host controller is a System unit.
A Flash Memory Drive is used as a hard drive to store rewriteable data on an
Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) that is erased and programmed in large blocks. The Flash Memory Feet fastened itself to the system unit by securing itself to the bottom of the host controller which no standard Flash Memory
Drive does
As an integral part of the system unit, the Flash Memory Feet goes where the system unit goes: into the car, into the train, and everywhere on a business road trip, therefore the user has no problem remembering to bring the Flash memory Feet along on a business trip. Besides, with the Flash Memory Feet firmly fastened underneath the system unit, system unit user does not have to carry an extra piece of electronic device
System unit user who uses the standard Flash Memory Drive and not the Flash Memory
Feet has to carry the standard Flash Memory Drive separately on a road trip and risk losing the standard Flash Memory Drive to theft and forgetfulness on a road trip. The information on the Flash Memory Feet can be transferred to another system unit easily by Bluetooth password connection. System unit user can keep private and sensitive information separately inside the Flash Memory Feet away from the public by hiding them in the Flash Memory Feet
The Flash Memory Feet is a hidden memory flash drive where important information can be kept. Some types of important information are particularly useful to keep inside the Flash Memory Feet such sales report and inventory reports that need to be constantly updated. Memory Feet acts as an insurance to protect the information if the hard disk should fail or crash. Regular updating of important information from the system unit to the Flash Memory Feet a very easy task because they are at very close range to each other. Important information can be regularly updated and kept in one
Flash Memory Feet and sensitive information can be kept in another Flash Memory
Feet.
The system unit user enjoys easy and quick access to the Flash Memory information any time by having the Flash Memory Feet underneath all the time. Being attached underneath the system unit the Flash Memory Feet is always within very close range whether by wireless Bluetooth interface or Universal Serial Bus (USB) cable interface, the bi-directional data signal between the Flash Memory Feet and the host controller always remains strong and connected

f. A Bottom Protective Layer is fitted (Fig10j) to the bottom of the PCBA Housing (Fig10h)
62. The inventive step of a taller and bigger shape and size Flash Memory Feet adds various ergonomic advantages.
63. The taller and bigger shape and size of the Flash Memory Feet creates a higher and larger air gap that allows sufficient naturally air from its surrounding environment to circulate underneath the System Unit (Fig15, Fig16, Fig17) for the System Unit to operate at a lower heat temperature.
64. With the higher and larger air gap, the System Unit (Fig15, Fig16, Fig17) can be easily lifted up and carried about with a better grip by inserting one fingers comfortably underneath into the larger air gap between the System Unit and the platform the Flash Memory Feet
65.The inventive step to change the coating layer on the surface bottom of the Protective Bottom Layer of the Flash Memory Feet adds further ergonomic advantages.
66. The preferred coating on the bottom surface of the Flash Memory Feet bottom layer is a smooth layer of coat to facilitate the System Unit (Fig15, Fig16, Fig17) to slide about easily on desktop or floor for improved handling.
67.An optional coating on the bottom surface of a Flash Memory Feet bottom layer is a high friction layer of coat to prevent the System Unit (Fig15, Fig16, Fig17) from moving about particularly useful for System Unit (Fig15, Fig16, Fig17) that are placed in high and tight shelving.
68.The preferred material of the Flash Memory Feet embodiment is Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) plastic. Other type of material includes rubber with ABS and metal combination.
